Exercise Today



Recommended Posts

I've been slacking on my exercise the past few days. I'm going to get back into it today with a 4 mile recumbant bike ride.

BTW Telly, you rock!

I'm very excited and I'm always planning my next home escape to the gym :rant:

Emilee, I know you can't wait and neither can I. Once you settle in, life will be great for you again. Anything I can help you with I will! ;)

Tricia, no...you rock girl!

:help:

When did you start exercising? I'm 8 days out and would like to start--but you know those nagging little residual surgery pains keep me from jumping in.

I wouldn't get in the pool for 6 Weeks. My Daughter was Banded a month ago. The doctor said she can now lift weight up to 25 pounds, then unlimited after 6 weeks.

i started a slow walk on the treadmill after 2 weeks. but i mean slow.

today:

- waked 20 mins 4mph, 5.5%

- ran 10 mins 5 mph 5.5%

- 300 crunches, situps etc

- 150 arm exercises 7 lbs and 10 lbs

- 350 leg lifts

then i bought a bike! it was so much fun. i went over to target with a friend and we both bought bikes and rode around the neighborhood. i can't believe how much more tiring bike riding is than when i was eight!

I know! I bought a bike at Walmart and was so excited to get on and ride, then, damn! It was so much harder than I remembered, why wasn't it like that when we were younger? I used to ride my bike across town every single day in the summer to my friends house then onto the outdoor pool.

I have only been able to get 4-6 miles on it now. Once we move and get settled that is one thing I am really going to start working on. Getting my endourance up and biking more.

I want a really nice street bike so I can ride to work in the summertime, but I think they're like $700-$800. OUCH! Maybe I'll have to settle for my bargain mountain bike.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
